    Story of F&B

    Great concept close to home! I've been to the Library in Fresno and it's great too, but I dig the ambiance here. Our server Kyle was on top of it. The drink menu is short but he confirmed that their mixologist can make just about anything. We had the Peat Farmer, Tropic Thunder, Spanish Pear, and the Butchers Old Fashioned. All were great!

    Such good service. Entrance through diccicios, cork and knife and alley way. Loved the spiced pear drinks. Since it was slow was able to order food from diccicos which was helpful. Ordered a glass of wine from cork and knife before entry. Loved the wasabi peas bar snack

    A new speakeasy is happening in downtown clovis! Didn't want to take pictures of the inside so to not spoil the surprise. You will need to make a reservation, but worth it. Josh one of the bartenders was fun to talk to and will gladly explain the variety of drinks on the menu and make suggestions. The ambience is charming with the 1920's vibe. I recommend the charcuterie board to complement the cocktails. Forgot to take a picture but was delicious. Fun place to bring a date!

    Overall great experience! Service was awesome, friendly and social. The ambiance made you forget where you were. Six of us shared the charcuterie board and had two cocktails each, including the infamous Laundry Day. We'll go back!

    Incredible service. Ambiance was very much like a speakeasy should be. Drinks were very good. A little sweet for my taste but still amazing, very smooth

    The ceiling is really cool!

    The service was great! They filled our waters often and made sure we were taken care of. Drink recommendations were a hit. The vibe was really cool.

    Old Fashioned

    Really enjoyed our olive tray and drink! Didn't know we could order from Diciccos next door. Will definitely do dinner and drinks next time. Atmosphere was great for a date or a small group of friends. Staff was amazing! I accidentally left my phone and they kept it safe until the next day. Thank you all for a wonderful experience!

    We had a great experience and service was great. Drinks are good. The decor and ambiance are great! Nice place to meet up with friends. Make sure you make reservations. Will definitely come back soon.

    Laundry Day drink!

    Amazing service, fantastic drinks. This was our first night here. We came here on a recommendation. We are very glad we listened! We had a great night! They do not have food, but you can order a charcuterie board or olives. Our server Nicole was fabulous!!! We will be back

    The service and ambience are always great!! We've been here a couple times a love it. I agree with the others reviews, some people can get really loud which may interfere with the experience but not the businesses fault. We have tried all the drinks in the menu and all really great. Truly recommend

    It was the very first night and it ran very well. Lots of excited energy. The drink menu had a lot of thought put into it. It was a great experience. I like the dark hush-hush mood of the room. Will be back.

    Not only was the atmosphere absolutely stunning with what felt like a blast in the past but the drinks were made to perfection. What really made the experience over the top was the customer service from Nicole! She was swamped but engaged with every customer! This was an engaging, classy and exciting experience!

    Is it possible to order a bottle of wine from Cork & Knife for the table, since they have a bigger selection?

    Wow! What a great time at Bespoke! Bespoke delivered an absolutely amazing experience! From…read moreplanning the event to the moment we walked in, the customer service was exceptional. We felt genuinely welcomed and taken care of the entire night. The vibes were on point, and the atmosphere made it the perfect place to celebrate our special occasion. We celebrated our birthdays here, and both myself, my wife and all of our 30 guests were truly amazed. The drinks were not only delicious but beautifully crafted with an elevated presentation that really stood out. Every detail felt intentional and well done. They went above and beyond to make sure that our celebration was one to remember! An unforgettable experience all around. Highly recommend Bespoke for celebrations or just a great night out. We'll definitely be back! Thank you Bespoke!

    Fresno has alot of bars a lot! So when you are looking for something different and little more…read morequaint you have Bespoke. They cater to your drink taste and will make a cocktail based off of it. So I ended up with a cocktail that had a similarity to a whiskey sour. Was good well mixed and balanced. If you go during a show or event you'll pay an artist fee so keep that in mind. Also you'll have to book in advance to get a seat. Good spot for a date nite or to mingle with friends even better when a band or dj that plays a genre based music. 5/5 drinks ask the bartender for drink recommendations the do pretty good with it 5/5 ambiance and upkeep reminiscent of a 20's bar 5/5 bartenders and friendly staff 4/5 price point is slightly upscale but it's not bad

    I love it here and definitely want to come back!…read more I stopped in with some friends for a drink before our reservation across the street, we had the best experience leaving me eager for my next visit. The drinks were so good and the menu looked amazing too! They have so many options to choose from, perfect place to share a few bites with a group. Very cute inside, we sat at the bar but they have tables as well as a patio too.

    I feel like I am going crazy because all of these interviews talk about how good the food and…read moreatmosphere was, but this wasn't our experience. The setup itself is just weird; you have to stand outside and wait for someone to come out to seat you. When you go inside, its small and has kind of a "bar meets saddam hussein's palace" kind of vibe, there is gold everywhere in here. Not to mention its a bar that has been converted into a restaurant, its separated by the check-in desk by drapery. One good point is that all of the staff is very friendly and attentive, although I think our waitress had to cover every table in the place, which seems kind of not great for her! We started with some drinks, they were both good, no complaints there. After they came we ordered our food, we ordered them one at a time. First up was the bacon wrapped dates. These were pretty good, the bacon was cooked well and had some good crisp, it paired well with the dates and cheese inside. The walnut was kind of weird and my wife and I both thought for a second the date pit hadn't been removed. Next we got the corn empanadas, these were disappointing but not awful. The dough was cooked fine but it has absolutely no flavor, like nothing at all. The filling was also cooked ok, the corn had good texture, but similarly, had no flavor, about the only thing I could tint was a tiny bit of cilantro. Once you dip it in the sauce that comes with it, things improve, but we both felt the empanadas should be able to stand on their own. The last tapas item we got was the costillas al ajillo, these were both disappointing AND awful. They are advertised as "fall off the bone fried rib tips, garlic infused olive oil, crisp garlic chips" The only thing crispy about this was the meat itself, it was incredibly dry and had no flavor. There was a little bit of olive oil and some minced garlic, but not "crispy garlic chips". Credit where credits due they took if off the bill, but it was just incredibly bad. We finished with the chocolate flan which was quite good, no complaints there. All in all it was disappointing and I don't know that we would come back.
